Fried peanuts like at the fair, easy to make yourself at home – in this practical tip we show you how to do it

Burnt peanuts – this is how it’s done

Fried peanuts are one of the favourite sweets for many people, and not just at Christmas. Here’s how you can easily make them yourself:

• You will need: 200 grams of unsalted peanuts, 150 millilitres of water, a teaspoon of cinnamon, 150 grams of brown sugar, a pan

• How to make: First put the sugar, water and cinnamon together in the pan. Let it boil briefly and then add the peanuts.

• Stir the mixture over a high heat until the water has evaporated completely. The peanuts will then clump together with the sugar.

• The sugar should then start to caramelise. If not, turn the temperature up. The peanuts are ready when they are all coated with the sugar layer.

• Spread the peanuts on baking paper to cool. Be sure to separate them before they all stick together.

• Just like at the fair, you can fold triangular bags for serving.
